HE  STUDY  OF  HERALDRY  has  been 
regarded  by  many  as  dry  and  unprofitable, 
yet  on  the  least  inquiry  into  its  origin  and  in- 
tent it  will  be  found  not  only  interesting  to 
the  layman,  but  in  many  respects  essential  to 
historians  and  antiquaries.  The  pride  of  an- 
cestry is  innate  in  nearly  every  one,  and  many 
incidents  faintly  written  upon  the  pages  of  history  would  forever 
have  remained  dark  but  for  the  light  flashed  on  them  by  the 
torch  of  Heraldry.  Americans  are  very  ardent  genealogists,  and 
in  many  cases  have  as  full  a  title  to  armorial  bearings  as  their 
foreign  cousins,  so  that  it  is  only  natural  that  they  should  share 
with  the  world  in  general  some  curiosity  as  to  the  right  to  bear 
arms. 

The  arms-bearing  families  in  the  United  States  are  principally 
those  who  trace  their  origin  to  the  Knickerbocker  families  of 
New  i  ork,  the  Cavaliers  of  the  South,  the  Puritans  of  New 
England,  tLj  Quakers  of  Pennsylvania  and  Huguenot  exiles  of 
noble  blood.  It  must  be  remembered  that  the  early  settlers, 
although  often  styled  merchants  and  yeomen,  were  mostly  men 
of  good  family,  their  seals  and  much  of  the  plate  brought  with 
them  from  the  Old  World  being  engraved  with  their  Arms.  The 
War  of  the  Revolution  destroyed  Britain's  domination  over  the 
Colonies,  but  it  did  not,  and  could*  not,  abrogate  the  right  of 
^  Americans  to  Coat  Armor.  If  such  eminent  patriots  as  the 
Lees,  Carrolls,  Adamses,  Franklins,  Jays  and  Livingstones  did 
not  hesitate  to  use  their  armorial  bearings,  their  descendants  of  the 


COAT    ARMOR    IN    AMERICA 

present  day,  entitled  to  the  same  distinction,  need  not  fear  to  fol- 
low. Most  conclusive,  however,  of  all  proofs  of  the  American 
right  to  use  Coat  Armor  is  the  ruling  of  Washington  himself, 
who  said : 

"  It  is  far  from  my  design  to  intimate  any  opinion  that  Her- 
"  aldry,  Coat  Armor,  etc.,  might  not  be  rendered  conducive 
"  to  public  and  private  use  with  us,  or  that  they  can  have 
"  any  tendency  unfriendly  to  the  purest  spirit  of  republican- 
"  ism.  On  the  contrary,  a  different  conclusion  is  deducible 
"  from  the  practice  of  Congress  and  the  states,  all  of  which 
"  have  established  some  kind  of  Armorial  devices  to  authen- 
*'  ticate  their  official  instruments." 

The  science  of  heraldry  or  armory  is  indeed  of  very  ancient 
origin.  When  the  College  of  Heralds  was  established  in  Eng- 
land, in  1483,  its  business  was  to  register  Grants  of  Arms  and  to 
see  that  such  distinctions  were  not  borne  illegally;  in  other 
words,  to  bring  order  out  of  chaos  that  must  have  existed  for  a 
long  time.  As  many  abuses  found  their  way  into  all  matters 
touching  descent  and  Arms,  the  Heralds'  Visitations  were  later 
instituted,  in  the  early  sixteenth  century,  for  the  purpose  of  revis- 
ing and  recording  the  pedigrees  of  families  entitled  to  Coat 
Armor;  and  the  business  of  distinguishing  between  proper  and 
improper  assumptions  of  Coat  Armor  is  still  an  important  one. 

All  persons  who  can  deduce  descent  from  an  ancestor  whose 
armorial  ensigns  have  been  acknowledged  in  any  one  of  the  Vis- 
itations, are  entitled  to  carry  those  Arms  by  right  of  inheritance. 
When,  however,  no  such  descent  can  be  shown,  a  person  must, 
if  it  is  possible,  prove  himself  to  be  descended  from  some  one 
whose  right  has  been  admitted ;  from  a  Grantee,  or  in  fault  of 
that  proof  must  become  a  Grantee  himself 

During  the  Revolutionary  and  Civil  Wars  in   this  country, 
many  public  and  private  records  bearing  seals  and  impressions  of 

vi 


COAT    ARMOR    IN    AMERICA 

Arms  were  destroyed.  Seals  are  of  all  records  those  on  which 
the  greatest  reliance  can  be  placed ;  for  being  contemporary  wit- 
nesses no  doubt  can  exist  of  their  historical  value.  These  rec- 
ords were  frequently  the  only  proof  extant  that  certain  families 
were  entitled  by  inheritance  to  Coat  Armor,  and  as  the  descend- 
ants of  many  of  these  families  have  continued  to  use  a  Coat  of 
Arms,  the  following  authority  for  their  so  doing  is  of  importance. 
In  the  Lansdown  MS.  870  (Fo.  88)  William  Dugdale,  Garter 
King  of  Arms,  under  date  of  15  June,  1G68,  writes  as  follows: 

*'  It  is  incumbent  that  a  man  doe  look  over  his  own  evi- 
"  dences  for  some  seals  of  armes,  for  perhaps  it  appeares  in 
•'  them,  and  if  soe  and  they  have  used  it  from  the  beginning 
"  of  Queen  Elizabeth's  reigne,  or  about  that  time,  I  shall 
"  then  allowe  thereof,  for  our  directions  are  limiting  us  soe 
"  to  doe,  and  not  a  shorter  prescription  of  usage." 

Here  we  have  the  highest  heraldic  authority  in  the  kingdom, 
Garter  King  of  Arms,  expressly  stating  that  a  man  is  justified  in 
using  a  Coat  of  Arms,  providing  that  it  has  been  in  use  by  his 
family  for  one  hundred  years,  or  about  that  time.  We  must  also 
bear  in  mind  that  this  opinion  was  given  at  a  time  when  the 
Heralds'  Visitations  were  still  in  force.  At  the  present  day, 
Dugdale's  ruling  is  followed  by  Ulster  King  of  Arms,  who  will 
confirm  by  Patent  any  Arms  which  have  been  continuously  borne 
for  at  least  three  generations,  or  else  for  at  least  one  hundred 
years.  These  rulings  do  away  with  the  quibble  raised  by  a  well 
known  historical  society  that  the  usage  of  Coats  of  Arms  in  any 
manner,  shape  or  form  should  be  discountenanced,  for  the  reason, 
as  alleged,  that  so  few  families  trace  their  ancestry  to  the  parent 
stock  across  the  water. 

In  this  second  edition  of  the  present  work  data  relative  to 
eight  hundred  additional  families  have  been  included,  so  that  the 
Registry  now  offers  descriptions  of  nearly  two  thousand  coats  of 

vii 


COAT    ARMOR    IN    AMERICA 

arms,  with  the  name  of  the  first  of  the  family  in  America,  the 
date  of  his  arrival  and  place  of  settlement,  and,  in  the  majority 
of  instances,  the  town  or  country  whence  he  came. 

The  plan  of  the  work  resembles  in  the  main  that  of  Burke's 
General  Armory  in  England,  except  that  the  latter  includes  only 
the  arms  of  persons  of  British  ancestry,  whereas  the  American 
book  goes  farther,  including  the  arms  of  those  whose  ancestors 
came  from  Continental  Europe.  The  descriptions  of  the  arms, 
and  the  data,  carefully  collated  and  verified,  have  been  inserted 
only  when  actual  examination  of  the  necessary  records  has  shown 
the  family  to  be  entitled  to  the  distinction. 

The  scope  of  the  Registry,  not  being  limited  to  any  pre- 
scribed locality,  but  embracing  the  known  arm-bearing  families 
of  all  the  States  in  the  Union,  makes  it  the  most  comprehensive 
book  of  the  kind  published.  Its  very  unusual  interest  to  Ameri- 
cans desiring  for  any  reason  to  have  records  of  their  descent  is 
self-evident.

The  Genealogical  Association  undertakes  record  searching, 
by  professional  genealogists,  in  any  part  of  the  United  States 
or  Great  Britain.  Accuracy  is  assured  by  the  employment  of 
resident  genealogists  in  the  New  England  States,  Virginia, 
Maryland,  Pennsylvania,  New  Jersey,  and  New  York.  By  the 
same  means  thoroughly  accurate  and  authenticated  application 
papers  may  be  prepared  for  admission  to  the  Sons  of  the  Ameri- 
can Revolution,  the  Daughters  of  the  American  Revolution,  the 
Daughters  of  the  Revolution,  the  Order  of  the  Cincinnati,  the 
Colonial  Dames,  or  any  of  the  other  Patriotic  Societies. 

The  Association  undertakes  also  to  portray  Coats-of-Arms 
properly  in  colors,  a  task  requiring  an  intimate  knowledge  of 
Heraldry.  Any  Coat-of-Arms  described  in  this  volume  may  be 
supplied  at  a  price  ranging  from  Fifteen  Dollars  upwards,  accord- 
ing to  the  size  of  the  painting.  A  Pedigree  Chart  engrossed  by 
hand  on  parchment  vellum,  an  acquisition  to  any  library,  may 
be  supplied  at  a  price  of  from  Fifty  to  One  Hundred  Dollars,  ac- 
cording to  its  size  and  the  number  of  names  inserted.  The  de- 
signing of  Heraldic  Book-Plates  is  another  specialty  of  the 
Association. 

(Genealogical  ^rintins 

The  Association  not  only  compiles  family  histories,  but  prints 
them  as  well.  Many  persons  have  gathered  data  concerning 
their  ancestry  which  is  practically  inaccessible  to  many  of  their 
family  connections  as  long  as  it  remains  in  manuscript.  Yet  it 
is  an  easy  matter,  with  proper  aid,  to  print  a  small  edition  of 
these  records.  An  expert  genealogical  proofreader,  a  positive 
necessity  in  work  of  this  sort,  can  be  supplied  from  the  ex- 
perienced corps  which  the  Association  has  at  call.  Manuscripts 
may  be  sent  and  estimates  on  the  cost  of  printing  a  limited 
edition  secured.
